The survey covers actual requirements and the measures taken to achieve set goals on optimising driving speeds, increasing road capacity and moderating the effects of congestion; changes to mobility planning; strategies used to move people away from cars and promote cycle usage and public transport; and plans for improved traffic management or a new traffic infrastructure.

"As providers of transport planning software, it is exciting for us to see where the trends in the transport planning sector are heading," says Paulo Humanes, business development director of PTV Group. "This gives us important impetus for further development of our software."

The survey is available online until 8 March.
